Re: Horse Class It will be in the form mate. For instance. Wolverhampton 7st C5Hc. 7 Is the distance, st is the going (in this case standard) C5 means class 5 and Hc indicates a handicapp race. Obviously you deduce from that if a horse is being raised or lowered in class. Thats what you will largely find in the form figures as the vast majority of racing is of the handicapp type. For the better horses you will find G3 (group 3) and Lst (Listed) in the abreviations.
